Pantocid DSR and Superia DSR contain domperidone, while Pantocid L contains levosulpiride. Both of these active ingredients can elevate a hormone called prolactin, which commonly leads to missed or irregular periods. Additionally, the acid-reducing components, pantoprazole and rabeprazole, are occasionally linked to temporary hair loss. Please be reassured that these side effects are usually temporary and reversible. I highly recommend speaking with your doctor, who can easily adjust your therapy or check your hormone levels to help restore your peace of mind and well-being.
